Did you know

Mine too

 

My wife is actually very knowledgeable of the game. The wife of a head coach I worked for and my wife are the only coach's wives on that staff that was more interested in the games than the social opportunities of the games. In fact, she got irate if the others would distract her by trying to have non-football conversations. She's a good one!

 

Ditto. But football is the only sport she will remotely get into. She says she's a Packers fan. Has a couple of jerseys and some collectors cups. The thing is when they lose she's ok in about 20 minutes. I actually envy her detachment,

 

I love when the game evolved from a strictly metatarsal shuffle game into the forward motion of the humerus which propels the ball towards the person whom extends their arms in an attempt to embrace the metatarsal ball

 

Ya, the projectile game is sweet.

 

You make it sound all scientific and dirty or whatnot.

 

My wife has degrees from Kentucky and Vanderbilt.

She has spent her life trying to get distracted from the things happening on the field.

 

And Tennessee hasn't been any better since I've been dragging her to Knoxville.

Just sayin'...

 

I think you know what you must do.

 

Yeah, at least she can celebrate in the baseball and basketball seasons, while you get lectured on analytics.

So, jokes on you.

 

The first damned game she saw in Neyland was the Jabar Gaffney TD.

In hindsight, it looks like I traded any semblance of decent football for the blonde.

 

I could have gone for a while longer without thinking about that damn play.

 

Carpet match the drapes? If so, great trade!!

 

Hell, even if not... Still a great trade.

 

Have we entered into an agreement with the postal service, fedX, etc... For some type of same day delivery for the items delivered via air?

 

You could argue that the Gaffney "catch" started the true avalanche of catastrophe.

Nice pick, Cotton. That's what happens when you upset the football gods by inter-breeding with heathens.

 

Comparing us heathens to Vandy grads is a direct insult to heathens.

 

The football gods care not for our petty faiths or actual gods.

 

She's UK/Vandy. I'm Vandy/Vandy. So our kids are 3/4, I guess.

She's better looking than I am, though.

 

I mark the great divide in terms of pre John Ward and post John Ward. The minute Bob Kesling became the PxP guy we were doomed....
